4 Years Fixed Term Savings

• If you were to choose monthly interest payment, you will receive 3.74% gross variable. As this interest is being compounded, over the 12 months this will equate to 3.80% AER gross variable.
• The above rate is effective from 1 October 2024.
• AER stands for Annual Equivalent Rate and illustrates what the interest rate would be if interest was paid and compounded on an annual basis.
• This allows customers to compare interest rates across different products paid at different intervals e.g. monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, annually.
• Interest is calculated daily and can be paid monthly or annually, the date we pay your interest is linked to the date we receive your initial qualifying deposit.
• Interest is paid on a gross basis meaning without tax being deducted.

• Subject to an eligible deposit being paid into the account within 14 calendar days of the account being opened, we will pay the interest rate shown for the duration of the fixed term selected.

• When your 4 Year fixed term matures, a £1,000 initial deposit would have an estimated balance of:
  • 4 Year Fixed Term account £1,160.89
• This is for illustrative purposes only and does not take into account your individual circumstances

• If you are aged 18 or over and reside in the UK, you can apply for and manage your account online, 24/7 at rcibank.co.uk.

• To keep your account open, we need to receive an initial minimum deposit of £1,000 within the first 14 days from application.
• Unlimited deposits can then be made (up to the maximum account balance allowed of £1m) but the first deposit must be for a minimum of £1,000.
• You can pay in money from your linked bank account (the UK bank account you nominate during your application) or from an existing RCI Bank savings product, subject to the Terms and Conditions of that product.

• You can’t make any withdrawals before the end of your fixed term. This includes all the payments made into the account
• We will contact you to inform you about your maturity options, 14 days and again 7 days before the maturity of your fixed term account. You may choose to:
  • Reinvest your funds into another fixed term account of 1 to 5 years
  • Choose to transfer your funds into an easy access account*; or
  • Choose to transfer your funds into a notice account

Once your funds have matured, you will then be able to request a transfer to your linked account. If we do not hear from you, we will transfer your funds to a new easy access account.

• The fixed term starts on the date we receive your first deposit. For example, if you made your first deposit into a 1 Year Fixed Term Account on 2 October 2024, the fixed term would start on 2 October 2024 and finish on the 1 October 2025.
